this keeps happening and on the other site there was a security breach as this was a program trying to get the admin passwords, watch otu.

i think that's just a search spider from a search site like google or something

ahh but google shows up as google bot and invision is programed to rekonise spiders and they will come up as it, but remember you have had my warnings and words of advice , please take them seriously.

no, it's no google bot, it's some new search engine tracking our forum that is not known by ibp yet. i assume it will end in a few days. nothing to worry about
